Information
Aboriginal Bora Ground – probably the principal ceremonial site for the Rocklea to Sunnybank area. It was probably associated with the Stable Creek Swamp and Rocky Waterholes. At Newman Road there was once a fig planted by Sinnamons that marked one end of the “dance” ground. This area was also known as Rice’s Paddock.
